Climb into the Past, Rocket into the Future

We strived to capture the essence of the vintage cars, yet improve on things like ergonomics, cockpit space, and sound/heat management.  The connection between man, machine, and road is experienced behind the wheel.  We designed in modern comfort and controls like supportive seating, to ensure that the physics of extreme performance driving experience is enhanced, rather than affected by the vintage design. 

 

Sitting in the car you’ll find as large a cockpit as is humanly possible without changing the car’s exterior dimensions.  Following a careful entry and exit, you’ll find head-room, legroom and front/rear visibility that is surprisingly well executed.  An elegant and simple interior complements the design of the car and is well suited to customization. 

Both Mk3 Roadster kits (base and complete) come with a full interior.  This includes the original style British design bucket seats (tubular steel frames not inexpensive fiberglass buckets) in black, padded dash cover, complete carpet set, emergency brake boot cover, shift boot cover, shifter, shifter knob, MGTF door latches, door hinges and leather check straps, trim and gauges.  We also include two pairs of full five point SimpsonÔ racing H-harnesses for driver and passenger.  Optional leather seats are available in black.

We offer two types of gauges, modern and vintage.  Both sets are electronic and made to match with Ford electronics.  The modern Autometers are for the performance minded guys, while the vintage FFR-Smiths replica gauges are more traditional and favored by the replica crowd.
